Michael Jordan's father's murder may have been wrongfully pinned on convicted man, judge suggests

Michael Jordan's father's 1993 murder case takes a shocking turn as Judge Weeks urges Daniel Green's release.

In a surprising and unexpected development nearly 30 years after the tragic event, the 1993 murder case of Michael Jordan's father, James Jordan, is once again under scrutiny. 

According to 'NBC News', Judge Gregory Weeks, who originally presided over the case, has now requested the state of North Carolina’s parole commission to release Daniel Green, one of the two men convicted of the crime.

Green, who was 18 at the time, has been serving a life sentence for the botched robbery-turned-murder of James Jordan. 

While he has always maintained that he didn’t shoot Jordan, Green admitted to helping his co-defendant, Larry Demery, dispose of the body. The judge's request is a significant development, though it remains unclear what new evidence or circumstances led to this move.

A communications officer from the state's Department of Corrections confirmed the judge's request for Green's release.

At this time, Michael Jordan has not publicly responded to this recent turn of events or the potential release of Green. 

Many are left wondering what might have prompted this legal action and what the future holds for this case. 

In 2020, Green's co-defendant, Larry Demery, was granted parole, only for it to be canceled the following year without explanation. 

Whether Daniel Green’s case will follow a similar path remains to be seen, but this legal twist is sure to capture public attention as it unfolds.

While Michael Jordan himself remains low-key about the case, headlines continue to swirl around him, particularly about his son’s recent relationship drama. Time will tell if Jordan chooses to address this latest update about his father's murder case.
